1 Samuel 19 11-1 Samuel 19 24
Saul sent agents to David’s house to watch for him and kill him in the morning. But his wife Michal warned David,“ If you don’t escape tonight, you will be dead tomorrow!”So she lowered David from the window, and he fled and escaped.Then Michal took the household idol and put it on the bed, placed some goat hair on its head, and covered it with a garment.When Saul sent agents to seize David, Michal said,“ He’s sick.”Saul sent the agents back to see David and said,“ Bring him on his bed so I can kill him.”When the messengers arrived, to their surprise, the household idol was on the bed with some goat hair on its head.Saul asked Michal,“ Why did you deceive me like this? You sent my enemy away, and he has escaped!” She answered him,“ He said to me,‘ Let me go! Why should I kill you?’”So David fled and escaped and went to Samuel at Ramah and told him everything Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel left and stayed at Naioth.When it was reported to Saul that David was at Naioth in Ramah,he sent agents to seize David. However, when they saw the group of prophets prophesying with Samuel leading them, the Spirit of God came on Saul’s agents, and they also started prophesying.When they reported to Saul, he sent other agents, and they also began prophesying. So Saul tried again and sent a third group of agents, and even they began prophesying.Then Saul himself went to Ramah. He came to the large cistern at Secu, looked around, and asked,“ Where are Samuel and David?”“ At Naioth in Ramah,” someone said.So he went to Naioth in Ramah. The Spirit of God also came on him, and as he walked along, he prophesied until he entered Naioth in Ramah.Saul then removed his clothes and also prophesied before Samuel; he collapsed and lay naked all that day and all that night. That is why they say,“ Is Saul also among the prophets?”

When the Gazites heard that Samson was there, they surrounded the place and waited in ambush for him all that night at the city gate. While they were waiting quietly, they said,“ Let us wait until dawn; then we will kill him.”But Samson stayed in bed until midnight when he got up, took hold of the doors of the city gate along with the two gateposts, and pulled them out, bar and all. He put them on his shoulders and took them to the top of the mountain overlooking Hebron.
